Rent Rescue: rental income insurance
Rental income insurance provides peace of mind to help reduce the headaches of tenant defaults. Rent Rescue was born because founder Aaron DiCaprio and his wife had personally been burned by tenants in their own rental properties. The coverage provided helps avoid the unthinkable - being unable to collect rent on your rental property. Rent Rescue provides insurance to cover the abandonment of a lease, the death of a tenant, a court order breaking a lease, skips, non-pays, and up to $1k in legal expenses. Having rental income insurance helps mitigate the loss caused by a default, which is especially important for landlords who are dependent on this rental income. Be sure to listen to this episode as Aaron shares more on his company Rent Rescue.
The process to submit a claim
Rent Rescue is meant to be an easily accessible product, with its application and claims process all online. Once a landlord realizes he is not going to be paid, he can go ahead and submit a claim on Rent Rescue’s website. Payment is usually within 30 days. Rent Rescue has either a 3 or 6 month reimbursement, which is paid out monthly dependent on whether a landlord can find a new tenant. Each month, the adjuster will ask questions to start the payment process.
